Radiological assessment of flour consumed in Kuwait
This study investigated the natural radioactivity in flour consumed in Kuwait. To cover a wide range of samples, wheat, rice and gram (chickpeas) based flour samples were tested. Gamma spectrometry revealed the presence of 226Ra, and 40K in all samples, while 228Ra was detected in 14 out of the...
